2006 Salience Sauvignon Blanc, Linda Domas Wines

[wondersofwine]

Southern Fleurieu, Adelaide Hills, Australia

11.5% alcohol was $16.99 at Caroline Wine Company, on sale for $8.99 as much as $20 elsewhere
Importer: Turner Wine Imports, Morrisville, NC
Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (IWC) rates it 90 points and the review speaks of white peach and pear as well as lemon and lime pith. I would rate it 86 to 88 points but not as much as 90.
Straw color with palest tint of green. Hint of ammonia on the nose. Gooseberry and citrus notes. Slightly tart but pleasant. Good shellfish accompaniment. Short to medium finish. Very good QPR at sale price.

I had with baked chicken breast in mushroom sauce and another evening with crackers and white cheddar and crackers and artichoke/spinach spread.
